power conditioner

oleschool and dlcockrum,

I had 2 different regenerating units from P S Audio in the past, I found them a waste of money, the gentleman bought my last premier PS Audio unit said it did not do anything for him either.....that's why after awhile you see there big ac regenerating units 50% Off......I can buy there $5,000 units n smaller units now from there dealers for 50% off, I do not feel there worth it......................................................

I will look into the Powercell, I think they have a new unit out with good reviews, but I must admit I do like the idea of the big Bryston or Torus unit...... I did have a guy come over  today 2 take a look n see if he could run me a separate 20amp line, my ac box has no extra space in it.....so he took pictures of the box etc. n said he would get back to me......I hope he can do it......THANK YOU FOR UR HELP.

Back at ya , my setup is unique .. i have a separate 20 amp  line ...
 I am totally off grid .. full solar /lipo batt, hydro and generator backup ... 

oleschool,

Sounds like you have what we all need, great setup.....it all starts at that AC Line.

henrycai,
It has its moments lol...
Other times it can be quite expensive ,i just replaced two inverters at 2k each( no notice just tanked )..Although watching the hydro wheel spin and chug power to my batteries is slick during the winter.I enjoy explaining that the sun makes power for our house to my 2yr old daughter...The power i have is very clean in theory, but i do see it fluctuate throught the furman..I guess as usual here and almost everywhere in life,its related to the level you wish to go ...I would be shocked if everyone agreed on anything here ,even music lol..We all have different aproaches and financial investments in our systems..I also have another ht room 7:2 among other passions so the money goes in many directions..If price was not an option i would get into another more high end unit.I can say imo that a direct line to your system will yield great results,even if you unplug your amp during a storm etc..
best of luck ..

Although there are places where a power conditioner would be advantageous, such as a large apartment building; I believe it falls in the gray questionable area. Think about it, we're improving the AC, not the DC which is where it makes a difference.

The manufactures of high end components have already spent a considerable amount in high quality parts, turning the AC into DC; I should think those parts would be able to withstand a blip every now and then; that's part of what you paid for.

Many reviewers have stated they prefer the amp straight into the wall.

However, if I spent a bundle on a power conditioner, I'm sure I would be able to hear the difference, kind of like the magnificent clothes the King was wearing.
